Following a highly successful 2025 edition in Miami, America’s Property Exhibition (APEX) returns with its 3rd edition, APEX Chicago 2026, taking place May 7–9, 2026, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois, near Chicago O’Hare International Airport.
APEX Chicago 2026 will serve as a focused, deal-driven platform for cross-border real estate investment, development partnerships, and public-private collaboration. It will bring together international capital, U.S. developers, city leaders, planners, and solution providers to explore opportunities across residential, commercial, mixed-use, hospitality, infrastructure-linked developments, and emerging urban assets.
This edition will be co-located with the Smart Home Furnishing Expo and the Smarter Infrastructure Summit, connecting property development with intelligent living, sustainable building systems, digital infrastructure, and future-ready urban solutions. The co-location creates a unique ecosystem where investment, design, technology, and infrastructure intersect, fostering stronger partnerships and integrated project outcomes.
APEX has evolved into a results-driven platform where visibility converts into value. Capital connects with viable projects, developers meet serious investors, and conversations become cross-border partnerships. The success of 2025 validated the APEX model and set the stage for what APEX Chicago 2026 aims to deliver: access to decision-makers, purposeful deal-driven discussions, and opportunities aligned with the forces shaping global real estate, urban regeneration, placemaking, sustainability, and infrastructure integration.
APEX 2025 featured influential voices such as:
- Kobi Karp, Founder, Kobi Karp Architecture & Interior Design, offering insights on design-led value creation and investment appeal.
- Steven Meiner, Mayor of Miami Beach, highlighting governance, resilience, and long-term urban growth as key drivers of investment.
- Brian and Mika Kleinschmidt, HGTV stars, connecting investor and developer conversations to market demand, design, and livability.
Sponsor and partner support in 2025 from Sobha Realty, Beyond Developments Dubai, Marjan, Emirates, The RE/MAX Collection, the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau, and the Saudi Business Council underscored APEX’s credibility and market relevance.
